What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

My oldest son came over last night and told me that he and his wife are considering moving to the city. Mostly because their second child has dysphasia and there is a special school here for kids with that handicap. So I'll have all my grand-kids really close by. He also invited me over to his place for New Year's. so that will be nice too.
 
(((Icon Nokon))) you may be on your own, but please remember lots here are at your side. I will light a candle for you and send strengthening thoughts.

(((Amethist))), you can choose your friends but not your family. On my side ther is now only my brother whith whom I'm in touch. Do I feel I need others, no way, I am happy with the family I CHOOSE to surround my self. Love to you and your H.

Excited about today. Going to a party and hoping it will be wonderful. A little worried I will be uncomfortable!

(((Ayesha))), me as well, once we get ther it will be fine.
 
I'm feeling very low and came to bed as I wasn't in the mood for company, poor hubby has known all day that I'm on one of my leave me alone moods. He has done just that which makes me feel like a cow. I started this last night and fell asleep:eek: :laugh:

This morning didn't start well he came up and I told he to go away(just not as nice as that):(
I feel like I'm struggling to keep smiling but it's christmas and I want to be happy for my kids.
I feel like they have had to put up with a lot more than most kids do by just having me as a mummy:(
I really do feel like I've made their life's complicated, because no one knows what I'm going to be like untill I wake up. I feel guilty and a failure because I can't be the mummy I want to be for them.
 
Many have read and are listening to you. At least we can show our presence by your side.
Thank you ever so much and the candle was sweet.

It felt good to finally get it ALL out instead of trying to pretend that I was ok. And it feels even better to feel people like you understand and are willing to stand with me. I was kind of resigned to the worst and running low on courage around the holidays, but now I will again just deal with today. And face tomorrow, when it comes.

(((embracing the warmth in the flame of the candle and in your heart)))

Sincerely and always,
Alex
